Another Man's Gun is the story of Buck, a young pioneer in the early 1840's living on the Unorganized Territory of what is today Nebraska. Following the death of his father he has no choice but to move into the home of the old land baron Greguson. Along with Theresa, his mother and two little sisters, Cynthia and Julia, they are worked like slaves and endure daily abuse by the man and his half-wit son Willie.

The day comes when Buck has the opportunity to provide a better life for his family. He takes a job to retrieve Edna, the new teacher for his bustling frontier town. And he is to fetch her from New Orleans. For this job he'll receive one hundred dollars and he will use that money to buy his own land and build a home where his mother and sisters can live a good life....."that's if that teacher makes it back here alive....."

What makes this journey most incredible is that this is the story of us. The story of me, the story of you. The story of America, of it's spirit and determination. The story of what we do everyday to provide and create a better life for the ones we love. It's an extreme example of doing what you have to do against all odds in an amazing time and under amazing circumstances!
